"Enter Sandman - I dont like Metallica at all on their stance on copying etc etc BUT Enter Sandman is an excellent tune"
"This mega-selling album also marked the end of an era, as it hit stores just one month before Nirvana's 'Nevermind' signaled the arrival of the alternative nation. The Black Album found Metallica distilling their sprawling, epic metal machinations into radio-ready nuggets, and the massive success of singles like 'Enter Sandman,' 'Sad but True' and 'The Unforgiven' made Metallica international superstars -- much to the chagrin of hard-core metalheads everywhere. "
"None more black “Enter Sandman” and “Sad but True” packed massive riffs, but the hardcore gagged at Metallica’s blatant commercialism. The “Nothing Else Matters” video was extra jaw-dropping, showing the lads being (gasp!) sensitive in the studio. Still, the band’s newly pared-down assault converted millions, making thrash seem almost mainstream. Standout tracks: “Enter Sandman,” “Sad but True”"
" Time on chart: August 31 - September 28, 1991 Genre: Heavy Metal"
"The album that moved thrash-metal onto a whole new plane. This is the sound of Metallica growing up, spreading out and making music that’s always heavy in intent but also shaded with subtlety and grace. Astonishingly, even the ballads manage to work. Standout track: “Enter Sandman”"
""Enter Sandman" Runners up: "Sad but True" "The Unforgiven" "Wherever I May Roam" "Nothing Else Matters""
